Yep, we'll burn up those lines. There are 19 big replies to this thread. Wow!
Do you really think the Supreme Court is swayed by complaining phonecalls?
Basically, the DOJ argues that the federal government can do ANYTHING it wants with regards to gun and the 2nd Amendment offers absolutely no protection to the individual at all. IF the SC ruled in favor of the government, I think that it would be time to ask Claire Wolf if the awkward stage has passed.
Where are you geting that the poster was recommending such a thing? The number was for the WH switchboard, dummy!
Duh... which makes it even that much more pointless, doesn’t it, dummy?
Why would it be more pointless for the public to try to influence the WH vs trying to influence SCOTUS?
I want to pick up a rifle before all this goes down ... I want a Ruger Mini-14 in .223 .... then I’ll be satisfied ... let them take that away from me ....
yeppers .... right on!
BTTT!
Bush is doing everything he can to make me regret voting for him.
Better buy more than 1 rifle and some handguns too with LOTS of ammo while you can .
Let's see all those who supported this second amendment showdown in the U.S. Supreme Court. Raise your hand if you still think this was a good idea.
Tell me again how there's everything to gain and nothing to lose -- that having five justices on the U.S. Supreme Court define the second amendment is a good thing.
Don't hide. Don't slink away now. Stand up for what you believe in. Be counted.
BWAHAHAHAHA!
Yes, John R. Lott Jr., they can. But if the brief had been favorable, you would have written, "The Supreme Court can hardly ignore the Bush administration’s advice ..."
Ping to a good summary of what our President is doing to us.........

Your gloating has been noted. The state derives its legitimate power from the people. The people don't get their rights from the state. I didn't ask for this fight. Government asked for it.

I wouldn't gloat too hard.
